This paper suggests a hybrid model to solve a distribution problem incorporating the impact of uncertainty in the solution. The model combines the deterministic approach and the simulation including stochastic variables such as harvest yield, loss risk and penalties/benefits to design a distribution network with the minimal cost. Through a case study that includes farmers, hubs and malt producers in the supplying chain of barley in Mexico, nine possible scenarios were analyzed to plan and distribute the harvested grain based on contract farming. This approach gets an optimal solution through an iterative process simulating the suggested solution by a mixed-integer linear programming model under uncertain conditions. The results show the convenience of maintaining the operation between four and five hubs depending on the possible scenario; besides, the variation of the levels of the barley producers’ capacities are key elements in the planning to minimize the distribution cost throughout the suggested chain
En este artículo se plantea un modelo hibrido para resolver un problema de distribución incorporando el impacto de la incertidumbre en la solución. El modelo combina el enfoque determinista y la simulación de eventos discretos incluyendo variables estocásticas como los rendimientos en la cosecha, siniestralidad y penalidades/bonificaciones para el diseño una red de distribución con el costo mínimo. Mediante un caso de estudio que incluye granjeros, hubs y procesadores de malta en la cadena de suministro de la cebada en México, se analizaron nueve posibles escenarios para la planeación de la distribución basado en la agricultura por contrato. Este enfoque obtiene una solución óptima simulando la solución propuesta por un modelo de programación lineal entera mixta bajo condiciones de incertidumbre. Los resultados muestran la conveniencia de mantener en operación entre cuatro a cinco hubs dependiendo del posible escenario, además la variación en los niveles de las capacidades de los procesadores de malta son elementos clave en la planeación para minimizar el costo de distribución a lo largo de la cadena propuesta.
